International Women’s Day Breakfast 2019

International Women’s Day Breakfast

Balance for better

On Friday, 8th of March 2019 we will once again gather the community to celebrate International Women’s Day. In 2018 we experienced another big year of achievements for woman where we pressed for progress and have now progressed into a world that expects balance – we notice its absence and celebrate its presence. Balance drives a better working world and this year we’ll be joining the 2019 International Women’s Day conversation to help create #BalanceforBetter.

Join this year’s International Women’s Day Breakfast at Ivy Ballroom to celebrate the achievements of women – and men – within our community and learn more about the work that we do in Thailand to create sustainable income and opportunity for all. We will hear inspiring stories related to the change that can be brought about when we come together and approach things differently.

Help us celebrate the greater Hands Team for who they are and what they do for the children in Thailand. Whether it be our directors in our homes, kids taking on big university goals or sewers in our craft shop, we will recognise them and continue the conversation towards a gender-balanced world.

Why not leverage this beautiful morning as a celebration of your own colleagues this International Women’s Day. With all proceeds supporting the ongoing work of the charity Hands Across the Water, this is a morning of great food, equally great company and giving back.

Speakers

Event Details

ERIN T: It’s absolutely changed my whole world since that first ride. Having something in my life that was bigger than work or the things that you do here and being able to dedicate time to something that fills your soul full of absolute love – it’s incredible and it’s just allowed me to grow. I’ve changed who I am.

I remember getting off the bike on the last day, and I was saddle sore, there was one little child and says “Come and grab my finger” and just led me into the thing and grabbed me a bottle of water and she just didn’t let go of my finger. And for me it was just gold. It’s just one of those moments that I’ll cherish forever.
